Ensure compliance with inventory control policies and procedures.
Coordinate annual physical inventories, cycle-counting programs, and inventory reconciliation activities.
Partner with operations and supply chain teams to improve inventory accuracy, reduce working capital, and address unfavorable inventory trends.
